Thanks for that, Zlatan."For me, Zlatan is a player who has class, always wants to win, and he proved that when I moved to PSG. "He was one of those players that it doesn't matter whether we were playing an important match in the French league, or on the training field, he wanted to win. "If he wasn't winning, he was like one of my children. He would get upset, he would get angry, he would lose it. Not that my kids lose it, but Zlatan does. For me he is a winner." As for Ibrahimovic, who has scored six goals in 11 Premier League matches in his first season at Old Trafford, he said after receiving his award: "It feels unreal. Many are thinking 'Why him?' and so on, but after all the hard work over 15 years in the national team and 20 years in my club career, it feels like it's being appreciated."You usually get this after you die, but I still feel alive. When I die, this [statue] will live on forever."</blockquote>
